Congrats to the youngest active Derby Trailer who must have skipped school Friday to post the big Day 1 total with Freddy the Cap the engine on the train! Herk had a huge Day 2 to nab 2nd while Cal had a balanced pair of efforts for 3rd. Prizes to the Top 3!

Thanks to the 30 or so who participated on short notice.. Was fun and showed how tricky the contest formats are when you have to balance choosing value v. the need to build a bank.

As shown below, just a third of the mandatories -- 5/15 -- had winners over $10 and only 2 longshots that ran 2nd produced $10+ mutuels...

Congratulations to the winners. Great job Steve, this was really fun.

While he benefitted greatly from the top J'ville/Tampa cappers NOT taking part in the contest (and he KNOWS to whom I am referring), Congrats are still in order! Well done, and good job not realizing Freddy the Cap was 10 years old.

And one more thing: The city Truant officer will be knocking at your door due to an anonymous complaint.

Congrats to the top three. Steve, thanks for running the contest it is a fun format. It's an interesting dilemma whether to take a logical short price (Little Mike) or pick another horse that you think has little chance if winning.
